Sorry for not being clear Evolution 2.28.3 on ubuntu 10.04 lucid also on 10.04 netbook
I have 2 email accounts set up and enabled: email1 which is my main one which I send and receive from. email2 which is a send only address so the receive server is set to 'none' emails to email2 are forwarded to email1. When received, I can see the email was addressed to email2 even though it may be in the email1 inbox. (the email header shows email2 in the TO line) When I 'reply' to email2 I want it to be from email2 not email1 (that is why I set up email2 as send only) I assume the software checks the TO field of the email being replied to and tests if the email address is a valid account, if it is it sets the sender account to that if not it sets the sender account to the default accoutn Until today, this worked as expected, but today it changed so that when I try to 'reply' to an email to email2 it defaulted to sending from email1 I tried loading 8.10 Intrepid as a live disc (I had the disc to hand) and set up 2 email accounts as above and it worked as expected. (ie even though an email sent was received by email1, it was addressed to email2 and the reply was set to be from email2) I hope this is clear enough. I did spend a long time trying to sort it out because I thought it was a setting problem Other things I have noticed which may or may not be of interest. While I was trying to sort it out I deleted the contact 'tim' which held all my email addresses and when I tried sending out a reply (which automatically saves the email address in contacts) it saved it in the contact detail of another contact with a surname and the first name 'tim' which meant it was stored in the wrong place Since upgrading from 8.04 (3 updates via the update manager) evolution has seem less stable. As I said : a few times on booting up and getting into evolution it has crashed out back to 'enter user' on entering the password for the email. So I have to login again. But this is not repeatable. On booting it usually takes 2 goes for it to boot up. After sitting with 3 lines of text for some time, the screen goes blank and leaves a cursor at the top left of the screen. On the second attempt (using the reset button) it sits with the 3 lines and then the mouse and desktop image appears and it initialises properly. On switching off it asks if I want to close all programs and switch off and as far as I can see all programs are closed. It may be finger trouble, or a support problem. -- Tim Marshall t. 01707 272255 m. 0773311 5704 On Thu, 2010-09-09 at 18:49 +0000, Pedro Villavicencio wrote: > Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu > better.
